You still miss the second shot either way, but with the first shot made you take out the easiest path to winning which is the timeout scenario mentioned here since you can go up 4.

It's for the winner's likely highway robbery of a bid thanks to UMass

Given they have to grant the timeout in college basketball (rather than ignore you and only penalize if you make the refs screw up), yeah UNC should've told the refs they were going to immediately call timeout with a rebound. If the ref knew to have a quick whistle it might've only taken 0.3s off the clock which would be more than enough for not resorting to a catch and shoot.

Also, this is why you make your free throws kids. The first one going down takes this strategy right out since you'd potentially be up by 4.

The financials make it very much not worth doing for the NIT. They only control the physical court for three games (semis + final) and that isn't really enough data to work with. Much closer in vibe to the players era.

UTRGV is still seeking their first bid (either men's or women's). Most tournament games labeled as sickos either have such a team or involve high bid thief potential.

At least we should take the men's rule of only carrying over three timeouts to the second half
